Reporter: Manuel Espino Bucio
The Marines, the Army and the PGR are closing the circle on the top boss of the Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generacion, Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, El Mencho, whose movements have been detected in Nayarit, as well as on the outskirts of Jalisco and Michoacan.


With the detention of his wife, Rosalinda Gonzalez Valencia, Gerardo Botello Rosales, El Cachas, plaza boss for Michoacan and Guanajuato, and Juan Jose Farias Alvarez, El Abuelo, Jose Gutierrez Ochoa, El Senor de la TT, in law of Ruben Oseguera, El Menchito, and Jorge Luis Sierra Estrada, El Orejon, compadre of El Mencho, it makes six direct collaborators of the capo detained by the Federal forces in the last year.

This past week, Javier Valle Brawnt, El Peque was detained, considered the principal provider of precursor chemicals for the organization. In the primary family circle of El Mencho, as well as his wife, his son Ruben Oseguera Gonzalez has been detained since June of 2015.




"CJNG" is still strong", although El Mencho has taken hits to his close circle of collaborators, the criminal organization he leads has not been weakened by Federal authorities, said Guillermo Garduno, researcher at the Autonomous Metropolitan University.

For the expert on national security and the armed forces, the government has not fought the financial structures of the cartel, which keeps it as the group with the most firepower and the only one that has directly faced down the army.

"I do not think it has been weakened with the last arrests, because we must take into account that they are the only criminal group that has faced the army and unfortunately shot down a helicopter, with high powered weapons, which suggests that they are not weakened", he said.

The academic considered that the Federal government is currently carrying out urgent actions against the criminal organization, which has grown rapidly in recent years. "There is a panorama of violence in the country and an electoral moment that makes the situation more serious", he said.

In April, after the arrest of the presumed accountant of the cartel, the person in charge of the PGR's office, Alberto Elias Beltran, states that in a month and half, 23 operators of the criminal organization had been arrested, among them the Colombian Mauricio Varela Reyes, El Manotas, with which they have delivered heavy blows to the cartel.


The security cabinet has information that Oseguera Cervantes moves in the Sierra de Naranjo de Chila, belonging to the municipality of Aguililla, located in the Tierra Caliente, Michoacan, from where he originates, and in regions of Tepalcatepec, adjacent to Jalisco, with protection of the local police and the followers of the former autodefensa leader Juan Jose Farias Alvarez, El Abuelo, and Miguel Angel Gallegos Godoy, Migueladas or Mr. de Zicuiran.

El Mencho is there, and nowhere is safer, confirmed a former local official, who noted at the time that El Abuelo and now Martin Barragan, El Mano Cortitas, uses the people to prevent incursions of the Federal and local forces in the town of Tepalcatepec.

The cabinet report said that the operators of the Michoacano capo use the dam of Chilatan, located in the Tepalcatepec river to move drugs to the Jaliscan highlands. Last March, elements of the Mexican Navy met in the highlands of Jalisco with a group of Michoacan drug traffickers, among them Miguel Angel Gallegos, El Migueladas, plaza boss of La Huacana and Nueva Italia; Juan Jose Farias Alvarez, El Abuelo, plaza boss for Tepalcatepec; Homero Gonzalez, El Gallito, leader of the last group of the Caballero Templarios, who instructed them to take control of the municipalities of Apatzingan, Buenavista Tomatlan and Antunez, held by Los Viagras and its armed wing, La neuva Familia Michoacana.

  1. Looks like he's public enemy #1, he probably not connected enough for the feds to be after him so much due to most of his capos are getting arrested instead of going out in a blaze of glory.

    1. All cjngs leaders get arrested unharmed no shootouts, why do their corridos lie lol? They are scared of Marina.

  2. He's safest in the Tierra Caliente region? I thought the viagras are at war with him, they skinned el siri alive there and beheaded other CJNG members. The Viagras pretty much proved that not even mencho can muscle in to the hotlands so how the hell could he be safe there? All this shit gets really confusing.

    1. He is safest if he is where they dont expect him to be. Which for him would be in amongst his mortal enemies. I have also heard the El Flaco Sierra has asked for his help against grupo escorpion, and that he may be in tamaulipas.

    2. Yeah I suppose your right that's literally the last place I'd look for him. I wonder why they're stepping up the intensity to catch him all of a sudden. Maybe because he kidnapped those 2 SEIDO agents? Plus he's been killing lots of ex and current government officials recently (so I hear). Or maybe a very smart man in the mountains is making it look like he's behind all this shit (bit of a stretch).

    6. “Last March, elements of the Mexican Navy met in the highlands of Jalisco with a group of Michoacan drug traffickers, among them Miguel Angel Gallegos, El Migueladas, plaza boss of La Huacana and Nueva Italia; Juan Jose Farias Alvarez, El Abuelo, plaza boss for Tepalcatepec; Homero Gonzalez, El Gallito, leader of the last group of the Caballero Templarios, who instructed them to take control of the municipalities of Apatzingan, Buenavista Tomatlan and Antunez, held by Los Viagras and its armed wing, La neuva Familia Michoacana.” Wait a minute—is the article saying that Mencho’s allies met with the Navy and told the Navy to take certain areas from los Viagras? I thought that Marina was taking the gloves off in going after Mencho, not supporting his allies. Otis, can you clarify?

    7. You think mencho wld be that stupid to come to tamaulipas? El flaco sierra is desperate cus the matamoros faction and their allies are fucking his ppl up.

    8. Mencho wants border crossings, if he were offered a way into another border crossing, like he has with the remnants of the AFO, of course he would go there. El Flaco Sierra knows without help his days are numbered, and he would offer Mencho some piso free loads through his plaza.

      Delete
    9. I doubt it!!! Los Cárdenas and escorpiones are too much for cjng here in Reynosa. Mencho has too much wars already to get into another one

      Delete
    10. Well you are entitled to your opinion, but Mencho has worked, and is working with the AFO in Tijuana, and Sinaloa in BCS with Mayo against El Licenciado. He has designs on Nuevo Laredo too. Securing border crossings is demonstrably his first priority, as it is with all cartels.

      Narco history shows us as well that these temporary agreements happen all the time, break up, reform, and break up again. Certainly the USA govt and Mex Govt are not underestimating Mencho and the CJNG.

      Escorpiones are firmly entrenched in Matamoros and defend its borders with gusto. Their current war with El Flaco seems more based on stopping his expansion than their own expansion into Reynosa and Rio Bravo.

      Delete
    11. No free loads or nothing he'll have to pay piso to move stuff across Tamaulipas. CDG doesn't need him at all but the money is good, the only reason they'll let him cross anything is because they have major weight since Jalisco is where most stuff is cultivated. That's why Zetas were battling big time to enter Jalisco.. some people call Jalisco "la cocina" ;)

    12. El Menzo might already be in Reynosa. There's bunch of people now trying to sale ice in the RGV

      Delete
    13. Otis Matamoros faction already took rio bravo from los flaco and when he tried to invade progeso they stopped him too. They will take Reynosa soon and the matamoros people already know he asked Mencho for help

  3. Is this for show or is EPN going to have the big catch at the end of his term like we suspect? When we see him dead or captured he will have as much hair as Osiel.

  4. "I do not think it has been weakened with the last arrests, because we must take into account that they are the only criminal group that has faced the army and unfortunately shot down a helicopter, with high powered weapons, which suggests that they are not weakened", he said.

    But that was years ago. Why is he using it as evidence that they haven't been weakened?

    1. Sinaloense took down 3 helicopters a few years ago

    2. Yeah he sites a downed helicopter as why they think CJNG is the most well armed and dangerous. What a joke that was years ago and before all these arrests not to mention al cartels have the same fire power it comes down to man power and connections. Too many people are hyping up the CJNG train, theres really nothing special about them, nothing that hasnt been done before. The idolising "hes so cunning" is pure propaganda, he is no more cunning than the other big capos.

  5. Wonder what happened. But mencho will not be captured. He will be killed. I don't think epn wants him interviewed. But yea all eyes on him. Game over.

  8. EPN made Mencho, EPN will take down Mencho so the PRI can keep power simple as that. In 2012 Mencho wasn't shit, since 2014 Mencho has been internationally known as the new Escobar. EPN takes down the new Escobar, while the real players (MZ & Chapitos) continue running shit

    1. Stop copy pasting this nonsense. Those guys run nothing down south they have their own plazas.

  9. Last I heard was that all capos in michoacan were against Mencho, even el 85. That's what flipped the script, michoacanos are not about to have cjng take over that area. If he would have taken Michoacan, he would have easily been the most powerful capo in history of Mexico. Even if he is caught tomorrow,he has invaded more plazas than any other capo in Mexico. The reason the gov wants him so desperately is because he is getting way to big, he was even working on Tamaulipas plaza. He has presence all over Mex

    2. 6:19 even before, Miguel Angel Gallegos Goody "El Migueladas"
      Some call "El Trafficante mas Poderoso de Tierra Caliente" has been lording it there quietly since meth was brought in.
      This is the first time somebody puts him in a meeting with melitary and La Mencha in one meeting, but for the last 5 years La Mencha has been demonized by everybody as the bad guy of the movie, or the telenobela, whatever.

    3. This guy,,,"he has invaded more plazas than any other capo in mexico" hahahahha you clearly dont know who el chapo and mayo and even arturo beltran were they make mencho look like a girl scout. They controlled. double the amount of plazas mencho invaded. And world wide well its no mystery that chapo and mayo are in a league of there own . The goverment isnt going after Mencho because he too big they are going after him because hes not useful anymore he served his purpose plus his violent way of operating is bad for buisness

    9. Funny.... Mencho fucked himself...he tried to use leverage against Mayo and Chapo....dumb dumb dumb...Name one group who went against them, and grew..Every DTO that crosses their paths has been reduced to sub contractors....More so Mayo...None bere know exactly what was done at that big junta over Chapitos...I speculate Mencho tried to Stonewall him...Mayo then had Menchito snatched in jail...and told him....agree to terms or Guadalajara will tremble.Even Mencho knows...he has political juice...but nowhere near what Mayo does. Why do you think that they're so hot on him now? Mayo paid the Gov to get him.....why fight a war when a cool Billion will solve it for you. Setting Vicente up for the throne next year. Tying up loose ends. Ivan and co. Better stay in line or be next. But, I'm sure the ol Man told them so.

  10. Now now children...this is a marathon not a sprint!! What good is it to become the biggest and the baddest for a few years just to be taken down faster than you came up..in the end the ones that were there before him will remain there and mencho will be a thing of the past just like the zetas!! When people don't learn from others mistakes history is bound to repeat itself..adios mencho... it must of been fun while it lasted!

  14. Zetas are still around. I see them all over south Texas and northeastern Mexico. As far away as Florida, up and down the eastern seaboard as well. So I don’t know what past it is you speak of.
